TTC#2 and SO EXCITED! join me

[IsaacRalph]

Isaac- your chart is looking great! Good luck to you.

Im waiting for the phone call from my OB's office to confirm or cancel my D&C that is scheduled for Monday.. My bleeding just picked up again after dropping off dramatically for the last 24 hrs. so weird... Pray for good news please! hope you all are well!

Yeah bleeding can stop & start after miscarriage hun but hopefully its just your body clearing out! Really hoping & praying you don't need that d&c. Xx

 

[Hann12]

Runnergrl I really hope you get good news

My doctor still wanted to go with the D&C since my level went from a 42 to a 24. I asked why because my body is obviously trying to get rid if it. Just not fast enough? I didn't get a straight answer so I sought a second opinion and went to another doctor this afternoon. Urgent bc my surgery is scheduled for Monday..

New doctor said it sometimes takes more time for hcg to exit your body. It all depends on how far along you were and how high your numbers got and how your body processes hcg. A woman who lost a baby at 6 weeks would rid her body (most likely) twice as fast as I did of hcg. She wasn't worried at all and I'm not either. I go back to her next week to check if levels are even lower, but she said she would even be happy with a negative pregnancy test. Which she also said, at a 24, some tests wouldn't even register that as pregnant. I'm content for the time being

It's really a waiting game. It was either wait for my body to heal itself or wait to recover from a D&C this late in the game. I'd rather trust my body. God knows what He's doing.. Even when I don't understand.

Thanks for your thoughts, prayers, and kind words. They mean so much to me.

Glad you got second opinion hun! Sounds like you are healing slowly, surely a d&c is a bit extreme when your hcg is only 24. Hopefully it will go down further in next week & you'll be all clear of it. Hopefully the bleeding will help get this cleared up, fx'd. Xx

Hi girls!

Isaac - how's the TWW going so far? Congrats on the new niece

Runnergrl - glad the second opinion went well. I'd feel the same way. Your body is obviously dealing with it and best to trust that. Fx for you!

Afm - last few days I've had a lot of watery cm but no more ew since the other night. My cervix has been high but semi firm and should be hih and soft. This morning though it's totally high soft and open and loads of watery cm! FX I get a positive OPK today. So far they've all been negative. But I'm cd 14 today...would be awesome if the soy had me ovulate right on a proper schedule. Say a little prayer for me really hope my body finally gets with the program here!

Woo hoo this sounds fantastic mama! Let us all know how you get on with opk! It's so much quieter on here these days, what's going on? Nobody got any more updates, news or just general gossip?

 

[MamaMac123]

Think I've just been quiet the past few days because I'm sort of holding my breath...just really want to ovulate this time! Scared of overanalizing everything and getting let down once again.

 

[IsaacRalph]

Yeah I kinda know how you Feel mama & going by the lack of replies on here gather the other girls are feeling it too?? Still a little under the weather, trying not to symptom spot especially so early in the tww! Have you used opk yet, any more pains? X

 

[MamaMac123]

Haven't had anymore pains. OPK was still negative though it seemed a bit darker than usual. Hope that's a good sign.

Yeah I believe that too hun, it will happen!

 

[Hann12]

Your temps look great IssacRalph!

 

[elt1013]

Sorry I havent been replying the last couple days as I have been a little busy. I have however been reading what is going on with you ladies when I can.

runnergrl- seems like you made a good choice in getting a second opinion. I hate it when doctors are so quick to do something that may not be necessary if they just wait a little bit. I think they just don't want to deal with it anymore, so they take the easiest and quickest route for them but not you.

Isaac- your temps are lookin good...fx that I get on here and see a BFP soon for you.

Mama- hopefully that soy does the trick...looks like you are headed in the right direction!

AFM- no change, still BFN, no AF and temps still hovering over the coverline. BOO!!!! My gosh, AF just needs to hurry up and get here already. I am soooo over this cycle! I love my usual 26ish day cycles and now at CD50, it seems like an eternity!

 

[MamaMac123]

Elt - I'm so sorry hun. Long, unpredictable cycles suck! I hope your doc visit goes well and that you get some answers to get you back on track.

Afm - had a slight temp rise today...nothing huge but could mean something with all the symptoms I've had the last few days. No positive opk but I'm not relying heavy on those due to the pcos. Dtd last night so if I did ov hopefully we are covered. Will see what my temps do over next few days

 

[runnergrl]

elt-im so sorry about your long cycle...thats no fun! I hope you get answers soon!

mama- i hope you`ve caught O this month! Ive heard great things about metformin! Good luck hun, FXed!

Isaac- your chart still looks really good! I have a great feeling about this month for you!

AFM- just waiting it out as usual.. docs dont think this past bleed was a period they recommend waiting till I've had two cycles to try again. I dont want to go against their advice, but i want to try when WE are ready and when my body is ready. That may be sooner than they recommend, or later.. (although I doubt it will be later)

 

[IsaacRalph]

Hey elt sorry that your still in limbo with your whack cycle, can't beleive your on cd 50, I really think unless your one of those women who never get a bfp show up with urine you probably do have a cyst. I'm thinking as there seemed to be a delay ovulating too which is unusual for you,then this may have predisposed you to getting a luteal cyst? I don't know but that's my theory/ideas, maybe i'm wrong? Hope so & you get your blood tested & its positive.

Mama- good luck with the temp rise. You had better get bding I suspect if you haven't already ov is just around the corner! Do you think you should take vaginal temps next cycle if there is one? Hopefully not!

Runnergrl- thanks for the encouragement, I really need it! I'll just wait & see what this cycle brings, would love to have a solid yes/no! Really think your drs are a bit over the top, you shouldn't need to wait for 2 cycles to ttc, surely when your hcg is undetectable your cycles will be just normal? I think you should do what feels right for you & having that little ray of hope is what you need right now to get through these dark days Xx

Afm- 4-5dpo temps are good but my charts always do look great until about 14dpo, it doesn't tell me much really, although I do have ds chart to compare sometimes. Have been getting a bit of nausea which I usually get but its earlier this month, boob are slightly sore on the sides and that's it! pms symptoms no doubt, he he! no testing for me until at least 12dpo

 

[Jessicabaxter]

Hi ladies! I watch this thread daily and it's been quiet, it's drivin me nuts! Praying for you all!

 

[Hann12]

I know Jessica I've been waiting for some updates! I hope something is happening!
IssacRalph - your chart is looking fantastic!! Any symtoms?

Hey girls yeah plenty of symptoms which I take no notice of as I get them every month, fatigue, sore boobs & nausea mainly & lots of creamy cm! Had my cd21 bloods today & progesterone is a massive 75 so that might explain my bad pms symptoms every month? Last one few years ago was 78 on a non pregnant cycle so not holding my breath! Really not sure why we're not getting our bfp? hoping you guys are good & bubs ok x

holy cow!!! my progesterone was a 12.5 at 6 weeks! no wonder this pregnancy didnt make it... I hope and pray this is it for you! your chart seriously looks awesome!

 

[Hann12]

Wow that's a huge progesterone number!! Mine was 35 the cycle of my bfp! It has to be just a matter of time for you which I know is very frustrating but all your results are coming back fab! Did your DH get his little men result?

I've been soooo exhausted, I literally can't believe how tired I am. Got a big day tomorrow though as going to chessington world of adventures so won't have time to nap. Can't believe how important naps are now!
